Where to find ingredients

If you cannot find authentic requeijão cremoso, a high-quality cream cheese or a thick, spreadable processed cheese can serve as a suitable substitute to maintain the creaminess.
Preparation method
- In a mixing bowl, combine the grated mozzarella, provolone, and parmesan cheeses.
- Add the crumbled gorgonzola and the requeijão cremoso to the bowl.
- Sprinkle in the dried oregano according to your preference.
- Mix all the ingredients thoroughly until you achieve a uniform, well-combined paste.
- Place the mixture in the refrigerator to firm up before using the filling cold in your pastries.
